Guidelines for Using Ground Transportation

Question

Unless traveling with a client, employees must use the most economical ground transit option available when traveling to and from airports, bus stations, and rail terminals. The following modes of ground transportation should always be considered first:

Buses, subways, and taxis

Ride-sharing services

Personal cars**

As explained in the Group Travel section of this document, employees traveling to the same location should share ground transportation to and from the airport whenever possible.

**Private car services require management approval and should be used only when a more economical mode of transportation is not available.

Which additional resources would help an employee follow the company’s policy for using ground transportation? Select three options.

a list of company-approved car rental agencies
a brochure on safety tips for public transportation
embedded web links for booking inexpensive airline tickets
contact information for the manager who approves car services
a chart indicating price ranges for private car services

Answer 1

To help an employee follow the company’s policy for using ground transportation, the following three resources would be most beneficial:

1. A list of company-approved car rental agencies - This would provide employees with options for rental cars that align with company policies.

2. Contact information for the manager who approves car services - Having this information readily available would streamline the process for employees who need to seek approval for private car services when necessary.

3. A chart indicating price ranges for private car services - This would help employees compare costs and determine when it might be justified to use a private car service instead of more economical options.

The other options, while potentially useful in other contexts, are not specifically tied to adhering to the company's policy on ground transportation.
